Friend from hell

My friend from hell is coming to visit.

I like the idea of a friend from hell, where hell is a literal place, but is also the place we imagine hell to be, but also not, because this imaginary real hell is unlike what people think hell is, because people are always getting things wrong! Hell is actually pretty cool. Like Candyland, that's what hell is like. People have it SOOOO wrong. It's just, underground. But there's light, of a sort. Bioluminescence. It takes some getting used to, but doesn't everything? And yes, yes you can eat the walls of the caverns. Because everything is CANDY. People's teeth rot, yes, maybe that's where our metaphorical hell got some of its bad image. But everyone just loses all their teeth and goes on enjoying the candy. And it's ALL GOOD. I mean that literally and metaphorically. I visited my friend from hell once, in hell. I personally don't want my teeth to rot, because I do live up here in the daytime world, but I could see maybe eventually going to live down in hell. There's also giant ball pits. For ALL AGES. So that's pretty cool. And slides, lots of slides, because you're just always going further down. You can take off your socks and walk up the slides, but you'd probably rather use the elevators. But slides all the way down, for sure. And yeah, my friend from hell is super sweet. Metaphorically.
